Oh Gosh Trekker....didn't you just crack up? Me laughing upon waking is a miracle and has never been accomplished in my very long lifetime. Sounds like we better hurry to get ours. Since I can't really afford one, I thought I could buy one and rent it out to all the sad faces around here.

Carolyn....you are welcome. I had just seen the 2 toothpick trick on a cooking segment a few days ago. Yes, the meatloaf mixture is exactly the same as for a stuffed pepper except better. It comes out much more moist because you mix in the scooped out zucchini and then it's cooking in the zucchini which is also nice and moist vs dry green pepper. I always liked stuffed peppers until I found stuffed zucchini......much better.....but....much shorter season to have them.

Bobbi.....well........then where are all the rest of the pix? Like the one playing in the refer with the zucchini? I trust you could make a whole album with a zucchini and a gourd.
